Eek. I feel like I might be getting in over my head.
I got myself a nice car recently (yes it`s a Saab, sorry... I LIKE THEM). Actually it`s not just any Saab, it`s a Viggen. Anyhow, the paint is mostly nice but there are a bunch of tiny chips on the hood, a shallow scratch on the roof that just barely revealed some primer, etc. I ended up at this site after researching on the web and have been digesting tons of info on all the different steps and materials and compounds and tools and so on and so forth... I`m wondering: is it even worth it to me to invest in all this stuff (like a PC... yay I know what that is now) if I only have 1 car and I`m only doing it for myself? Or is there some guy (maybe one of you?) who I could pay to do it for me? I`ve looked around the state but haven`t located anyone who does serious detailing. Yes there are detailing shops but not of the level of quality ("clay? What`s that?") that the folks on here take it to (which is what I want). And some of you charge less! Hell it`s probably almost worth driving to CT and having Sean do my car. Heh.
It also seems that most the detailing places don`t do nicks and scratches, and that`s a big part of this. Having never done them before, I`m nervous about learning on my baby.
It`s a black car and it already turns heads. I just want that extra WOW factor (we`re talking Sourveran on top of Klasse AIO, yes I`d pay for that) and to get those nicks taken care of. Any advice?
